"As long as they send us food here until we can farm again, then maybe, it's not too bad."
The people were getting convinced as they discussed with each other the logic behind the facts Arabella explained.
However, someone suddenly said in a loud voice, "But what if they suddenly stopped sending us food?"
It was the same homeless-looking man who first asked for help.
His voice sounded too energetic for a homeless man who should have had no food.
He pointed out a valid concern, but Ferdinand already explained that food will keep arriving from Riva.
More murmurs of worry began in the crowd as they thought about the possibility that the man had said.
"Indeed! Aren't we just getting abandoned?! They are lying to us! Just look at what they did to all our hard work! They burned our crops and produce!"
Another man who was dressed like a farmer was the one who screamed this time.
More murmurs erupted as they recalled how they felt when their crops and produce were burned.
